Monica Garay: Executive director, Congressional Hispanic Caucus

Monica Garay has 43 different bosses as part of her job wrangling members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) as it seeks to serve as a foil to the Trump administration.

It’s a busy time for the caucus, which is positioning itself to combat President Trump both on his immigration policies and other issues they say affect the quality of life for Latinos.

Garay, 31, describes the group as raising the voices of Latinos “from south Bronx to South Texas.” 

“The CHC moving forward is going to continue to emphasize that, but also defend those very values, because right now, there seems to be a sense of erasure of our community.”
